who directly advocated crime, but to
sense. Earl Spencer, he said, moved

Mr.. Gladstone as if to the manor born.
He concluded by predicting that
steady application of the present policy
of the government would result in the
Irish becoming enthusiastic and loyal
supporters of an empire which they, by
their virtues, were fitted to adorn.
THE FISHERIES.
TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 4.-The Globe
to-day in an editorial article headed,
"a Perilous Situation" says: To ap-
preciate rightly the risks in which Mr..
Chamberlain has involved Canada, one
must carefully consider the interna-
tiona1 correspondence relating to the
fisheries dispute. The Globe then re-
views at length the results of over two
American and Canadian governments,
most conciliatory demand of the
United States is that for
settlement by Mr.. Bayard
under date of November 18th, 1885, and
there is not particle of evidence that
the United States has received one jot
from the demand. If the commission
ers are to discuss the fisheries question
separately, the alternative to the &C
ceptance of MIR. Bayard's proposal is
state of non-intercoUrse, commercial
reprisals and probably war. The case
is one in which the United States has
comparatively little to fear. Great
Britain has to fear large loss of trade.
large expenditure of money and the
shedding of British blood, but not in
vasion. Canada has everything to feSr
for here would be the battle ground.
Ours would be the main cost and our
young men would furnish the bulk of
the repast for the carrion crow. Fortu-
nately there is a perfectly honorable
method of settling the fisheries
the bargain. 1t was suggested by the
true Canadian, MIR. Wiman, and pro:
posed to the American congress by Mr..
Butterworth. 1t has been approved by
the best elements in the Uniten States
| and in Canada. That is settlement
by unrestricted reciprocity. In the
| earnest discussion of that plan by the
commissioners, besides that, the only
| hope, so far as we can see, that Canada
may escape from the Scylla and
Charybdis, is abject surrender of COM
mercial interests - non-intercourse.
That always leads up to war. But it

| itician, nominated in an evil hour to
the British commissionership, has
pIODdDly Iudu6 USELESS any Ul5SudciOu
of unrestricted reciprocity in which he
may take part"
